A Central Florida man is accused of pretending to be a law enforcement officer and pulling over an off-duty sheriff's deputy, according to a Local 6 News report.

Authorities said Tony Brest used a Crown Victoria to pull over an Orange County sheriff's deputy in an unmarked vehicle on state Road 408.

"The individual was trying to get the deputy to pull over, got behind him, got real close and eventually he turned on the lights on top of his car," Orange County sheriff's Deputy Carlos Padilla said.

That was stupid of dude and I'm glad he was caught before he pulled over someone he could take advantage of.

But, sometimes I am tempted to put lights in the back of my car and pull over a few unsuspecting morons on Rt. 4 when I'm on my way to work.

Brest's friends said the incident was just a misunderstanding, claiming Brest thought the deputy was speeding.

Haha, I wish it worked that way....so many cops would be getting pulled over each and every day!
